The text as I find it today, 6 Feb 2007, is an exact copy of the only external link (Official Commonwealth of Massachusetts Governor Biography). Is this a violation of Wikipedia copyright policy? I know that is a government site, but State publications are not completely and automatically Public Domain. Pzavon 03:38, 7 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
